UNSPSC 50305340: O'henry peaches

The variety of peaches known as o'henry peaches

UNSPSC 50305340 O'Henry Peaches, a Commodity code, classifies fresh peach procurement for institutional food service — primarily correctional facilities, schools, healthcare facilities, and senior centers. Recent state and local opportunities show solicitations for fresh fruit and vegetable supply contracts that explicitly name peaches and other tree fruits as part of broader produce procurement. Issuing bodies include state departments of corrections, school districts, county health systems, and municipal senior services divisions. Work spans weekly or bi-weekly delivery of fresh produce to central warehouses, individual facility sites, or both; vendors typically assume responsibility for product quality, temperature control, timely delivery within narrow windows (often 5:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m.), and replacement of damaged or spoiled goods at no cost to the buyer. Contracts frequently carry Buy American requirements mandating domestic sourcing and compliance with USDA grading standards, HACCP food-safety plans, prevailing wage certifications (particularly in Illinois), and general liability insurance of $500,000 to $1 million per occurrence. School districts weight evaluation on cost (30–40%), product quality and menu variety (20–35%), vendor experience and references (10–20%), and diversity certifications (5–15%). Most contracts run one fiscal or calendar year with optional renewal periods.

Texas Department of Criminal Justice has posted three fresh produce solicitations since late September 2026 — IW267411 (Wynne Food Warehouse, due October 14, 2026), IW267420 (Snyder Food Warehouse, due October 14, 2026), and IW267376 (Palestine facility, due October 19, 2026) — all managed through the TDCJ Procurement Portal at bonfirehub.com. Across the South, school nutrition programs in Georgia (Hancock County, Dougherty County, Bryan County, Bartow County, Early County) and Florida (DeSoto County) issued sealed bids for fresh produce in May and June 2026, with contract terms running July 2026 through June 2027 and estimated annual values ranging from $78,000 (Madison, Wisconsin petite bananas) to $969,460 (Head Start of Greater Dallas grocery procurement). The Illinois Department of Corrections (Joliet Treatment Center) and Illinois Department of Mental Health (Madden Mental Health Center) each posted small-purchase or restricted produce bids in August 2026. The code sees consistent activity across state prison systems, school districts, and municipal food service operations, with geographic concentration in Texas, Georgia, Illinois, and Wisconsin.
